Default Religion

I'm watching Bill Maher's documentary Religulous (one of my favorites)!

Just curious as to what fighttip's members believe in. Me? I'm an agnostic "weak" atheist.

Default Re: Religion

I find religion facinating.

I'm a Agnostic Theist. I know people say that Agnostics are atheists without balls, but that just shows a lack of understanding in the topic. My family members are all Christian of 3 different denominations. I am of an analytical mind and therefore find impossible to believe most of the stories of religion whether it be Christian, Islamic, Hindu, etc. I feel that Buhdism is a good mind set, but again have problems with the whole Karma/Nervana thing.

However there are something that have yet to be explained by science and until they are I remain an Agnostic Theist. I feel that I can't be Christian/Any other religion without faith, and faith I do not have. But I cant rule out the possiblity of a grand creator.

Default Re: Religion

I dislike the thing that most people get the idea that you need the bible to be happy, Im not religious...but those bibles can sometimes have good philosipy but Im starting to think Religion is rationalized and makes you weak. Athiest is a nasty word for people who are not that much into religion, anyways, My favorite religion is probably buhddism
( did I spell it right)

Alot of people believe in Karma, It is true that if you do something messes up it is just weird coicendtly most people I know who has done something something right afterwards or something in return is already happening to them, I don't know I can't explain it

Despite me not being much religious I do kinda believe in what goes around comes around

Religions have been causing war and trouble.
@christianity, There probably was a Jesus, but he was probably a peace maker, not a magical dude.
who knows, so much stuff at the moment.

One of the most evil Religions is cathlicism, it has a long history of evil and whatnot

I sometimes feel religios but am very questionable about it at the same time, Maybe god is totaly different then what most religions tell u how he is.

again, Im seriously not that religious and cant really say I am...:O

I am spiritual though, I believe in the power of belief and hardwork and effort, I am more of a spiritualist

Haha you don't need the theist part after agnostic, but I understand your view. I was there once, until I figured out the improbability of a supreme being. One thing that upsets me about religion though is the case on morals. That people believe you can't have morals if you're not religious. Yes, there are good morals in the Bible/Quran, but there are also bad ones.

I don’t believe in Zeus, Apollo, the Hindu gods, Santa Claus or the tooth fairy.

Every religion is BS.

First: Agnostic Theism is a little different than just an Agnostic.

Second: Koran or Qu'ran are both right. Its a phonical translation.

Default Re: Religion

I'm a Roman Catholic. Though I do believe that other religions are close enough to being right. For example, the Muslims. Their belief in one god and such works with me, and their religious structure is fairly sound. The reason I'm not Muslim, though, is because I don't believe their prophets and such. And also the shear amount of wackjobs associated with it. No offense meant, of course. However, other religions such as the witchcraft people I don't tolerate that well. I'll let them live, and just ignore them, but I truly loathe that belief.

And its 'Buddhism' not 'buhddism' lol
